Android 2.3.4 on AM3517 - Ethernet configuration

This question is answered

Hi,

we are testing Android 2.3.4 on AM3517 and we have seen from the following link

http://processors.wiki.ti.com/index.php/TI-Android-GingerBread-2.3.4-DevKit-2.1_UserGuide#Browser_Configuration,

that a user should configure manually the Internet connection eth0 before using a web browser with the following console command:

#> netcfg eth0 dhcp
#> setprop net.dns1 `getprop net.eth0.dns1`

My question is, how can I set "eth0" configuration at startup (with a static IP or with a dynamic IP address) without sending each time the above commands each time I switch on the machine ?

thank you,

Paolo.

    Hi Manuel,

    1. I hope your query has been resolved. Let me know if you want more inputs.

    Paolo,

    1. when you are moving to 10'' LCD you need to recalibrate your touch screen.

    http://processors.wiki.ti.com/index.php/TI-Android-GingerBread-2.3.4-DevKit-2.1.1_PortingGuides#Touch_Calibration

    2. For changing a default mount point for gallery apps.

    Go to <android-src>/device/<your platform>/overlay/frameworks/base/core/res/res/xml/storage_list.xml

    and apply below patch with storage android:mountPoint as per your choice

    android:primary="true"

    android:emulated="true"

    android:mtpReserve="100" />

    + <storage android:mountPoint="/mnt/usb2"

    + android:storageDescription="@string/storage_usb"

    + android:removable="true" />

    </StorageList>

    3. You can always create a new service using NDK or putting your code in external folder and build as executable. Then launch service from init.rc file

    Hi,

    About the non-phone device, I'll try to remove apk phone related file from AFS, but at startup i got the following error message:

    "The Application Android keyboard (process com.android.input.method.latin) has stopped unexspectly. Please try again"

    1) Is There a solution / patch for Gingerbread to integrate the ts_calibrate application and the integration of pointercal file ?

    2) I can't find any storage_list.xml file in my  <android-src>/ 

    Can I have a corrupted repo ?   I cloned sources from Gitorious.org/rowboat repository with

        $ repo init -u git://gitorious.org/rowboat/manifest.git -m TI-Android-GingerBread-2.3.4-DevKit-2.1.xml

       $ repo sync

    BR,

    Paolo.

    Hi Paolo,

    1. There is no ts_calibrate application at present. One need to do calibration manually.

    2. Opps.. The file is only available for ICS port. Gingerbread this support is not there.

    You need to edit vold.fstab file manually for mount point.

    Hi Paolo,

    Sorry.. At present we do not have anly plan to support ICS for AM3517.

    But still you can take the code and try to port. It should not take much time for you.

    Hi Satish,

    about the ICS porting on AM3517, do I need to download the SGX 1.8 version and apply to ICS repo or is already present in the master branch of ICS ?

    thank you.

    BR,

    Paolo.

    Hi,

     

    I need a way to find out the Wifi Ip and Ethernet Ip I get is static or dynamic? (android device)

    With the commands you specified I could get the ethernet Ip address, netmask,gateway , dns1 and dns2.

    But apart from tht how can I know if its statically configured one or not?
